After a long silence, she looked atand asked blandly, "What do you want to talk about?"
| looked at the divine statue and asked, "Do you believe that He'll protect you?"
She replied in a very serious manner, "If He hadn't protected me, then | wouldn't be standing here talking to you
now.”
| felt speechless and could not help but think that she was going overboard.
| walked up to her side and said mildly, "You said that your family is in Hommiton City earlier. Holly plans to open
up a business in Hommiton City when we go back. Will you consider joining us?"
"No," she replied, her tone carrying no emotion.
I nodded and thought about it before saying, "I really didn’t mean for all of this to happen. | wished more than
anyone not to hurt any of you. | didn’t expect Franky to-"

She looked atwith coldness in her eyes. "Do you think you're standing on a moral high ground, Wanda Lane?
Has anyone ever told you that you look very fake when you act all high and mighty like this?"
| froze, taken aback that she would suddenly say such things.
Dazaray sneered. "You probably didn't notice it yourself. You're clearly a cold and selfish person, yet you're
putting on this generous and kind image for yourself. You cfrom a superior background and are really lucky
because men are willing to protect you."
She continued after a pause, "Our lives, as well as your own, didn't cfrom relying on your efforts, so stop
acting like you've delivered all of us from evil."
| could not refute because she was right that others were the ones who had saved our lives.
Dazaray was not done talking yet. "Truth is, you hate m e more than them but you like to act noble and kind.
Why else did you keep quiet when Franky chose me? It's because you think that you'll be less guilty even if | get
hurt since everyone hates me, right?"
| pursed my lips and remained silent.
It was not because | could not refute but because | actually thought her words made sense.
This was human nature, and it was indeed frightening.
| was serious about rescuing them, but | also did not put full effort into doing it.
Even though | knew that Theo must be still searching for me, | took my own sweet time.
"What's wrong? Nothing to say?" She sneered, looking atwith a particularly sarcastic expression.
| let out a self-deprecating smile but eventually said nothing. | turned around and left.
Not many people could face their own filthy hearts, and | was no exception either.
The next day, sunlight streamed through the glass window, spilling onto the bed in the bedroom.
It was already August and almost autumn now.
As we were ready to go back to our country, everyone woke up pretty early this morning. We packed our things

We would need passports and IDs to go back to our country. Shannon and the girls’ families had delivered theirs,
but I did not have mine yet.
Apart from remembering Theo's phone number, | was not able to remember other people’s phone numbers.
Even if | remembered their numbers, my documents were all in Riverbank City. It would take a long tto get
there from Whaldorf City and then deliver the documents over.
Jordan was a little troubled because | had no passport and identity documents, so he started looking for a
number of institutions to produce certificates for me.
When we arrived at the airport, Jordan ordered his men to retrieve the flight tickets. He needed to make a
call, so we were left by ourselves.
Shannon and the girls were over the moon. They held my hand and said, "Can you imagine what I'm feeling right
now, Wanda?”
